Technician A is correct that all electrical tools that are not double-insulated must be grounded to prevent electrical shock. Technician B is also correct that even a properly grounded tool could cause a shock if there is an easier path to ground available for the electrical current, such as through a person's body. Therefore, both technicians are correct.
